Examples <strong>of</strong> cumulative l<strong>and</strong>scape <strong>and</strong> <strong>visual</strong> effects<br />

As is illustrated here, a well-located, appropriately scaled proposal may be easily accommodated <strong>in</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> l<strong>and</strong>scape.<br />

Whereas one <strong>in</strong>dividual development may act as a l<strong>and</strong>scape feature, a number <strong>of</strong> developments<br />

can create a key characteristic <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> l<strong>and</strong>scape, alter<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> l<strong>and</strong>scape character.<br />

Expansion <strong>of</strong> several exist<strong>in</strong>g developments might also create similar cumulative l<strong>and</strong>scape or<br />

<strong>visual</strong> issues as <strong>the</strong> structures become more dom<strong>in</strong>ant as <strong>the</strong>y get bigger.<br />

A number <strong>of</strong> developments occupy<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> same loch may be different <strong>in</strong> type, but <strong>in</strong> this illustration<br />

<strong>the</strong> common orientation, similar sizes, simple, uncluttered structures <strong>and</strong> dispersed spac<strong>in</strong>g help to<br />

accommodate a number <strong>of</strong> developments.<br />
